Thanks Ben ... glad you liked our interview and thank you for your continued support. Kelley
So happy for Anson.......Loved him with all the gang!!!!
Thanks Mr Bennett for another excellent interview. Really loved this and learning so much about Donny Most - who was far more than Ralph on Happy Days, although that series is so iconic. A big fan of Craig Bennett's interviews, and this Celebrity Drop channel. Loved Julie London. Just sayin. :)
What nice and informative interview! Thanks so much for doing this!😃
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was an awesome interview! I've always loved Donnie. He looks fantastic! Thank you for doing this interview!
Glad you enjoyed it Pat.
Thanks Donny, thanks Craig! Like a zillion others, grew up watching Happy Days on Tuesday nights and now Ralph Malph is 70 (and I'm 62) and it's just really nice to catch up with these wonderful people. (I had no idea Donny Most was a singer, I need to check him out!) 🙂
Thank you for your comment Doug. Donny is a fabulous singer and it would be worth your while to check out his new album. It's great. Thanks again, Kelley
Great interview. Don Most is a terrific guy; thanks for the memories; my friends and I watched Happy Days together every week. Praying for his wife, Morgan.
He's still got it. Such a pleasure to watch this. Craig provides another masterclass on how to conduct a gracious and immeasurably informative interview. Thank you.
Thank you Steve for your continued support. Kelley
Great interview! What a down to earth guy. So happy you’re still going and sharing your talents with the world. God bless you and the Mrs. 😊
Thanks so much @travisvanvoorhis969. Glad you enjoyed our interview.
Love this, love Donny Most, from Happy Days to his singing. I have one of his albums and he has a great voice. Craig Bennett, I'm such a fan of yours and this is another genuinely great conversation. You and Doin Most are like two old friends. Thanks so much.
Thanks for listening Darmon and I'm sure Craig appreciates your comment. Thank you for your continued support. Kelley
Great interview donnie from brookyn like me have you ever intetviees wayne newton
I remember when I was a teenage actress and singer when I had a bit part 〽️ on Happy Days in the #InspirationPoint as #DonnyMosts #Ralphs #girlfriend #kissinghim #behindatree and I had so many fond memories of everyone on the set 📐 when I was so lucky 🍀 to be apart of this #fabulousshow. I was in #HighSchool at the time and friends with #ErinMorans Cousin who told me about the #Audition so I got the part right afterwards ❤️. I am so happy for #AnsonWilliams& Sharon's new #nuptuals because now I'm am sorta related to them by marriage because of my #UncleMarkBateman who is #Sharons #Stepbrother 💙 & I am still good friends with #RonHoward after all these years ❤️🙏🏻
Wow ... thank you for sharing Kathryn. I'll make sure Donny gets to see this. Kelley
@@celebritydrop That would be very nice of you to let him know that for me 💖
Wow . Thanks for sharing .
Great to see Ron Howard giving parts in the big movies he directs to his old pals from Happy Days...not!

I remember WOR being on cable when i lived in Illinois
Thats the only way I was keeping up with the Mets!
Don't Californicate Colorado!
Donny Most voted for Governor Newsome who is destroying California. Now this guy has moved away to Colorado avoiding the consequences of his political vote.
TH-cam IS BLOCKING COMMENTS.
POLITICAL CENSORSHIP ??
